JRPGs today, no matter the console, have shitty stories compared to what was during the PS1 days, most pepole who care about stories in this genre consider it a fact.

Fragile Dreams (for Wii) had an intellectual and great story (and side stories). Way better than FF & Co. ever had.
|
Hmm... was it released in EU?

I believe so. I want to say by Rising Star

I thought Valkyria Chronicles, Dragon Quest 8 and FF12 had good stories, even though slightly predictable - still good. however i would agree that these days JRPGs tend to have poor stories, not really sure why??
but i'm willing to bet TLS has an excellent story, considering Sakaguchi hired a professional writer (novelist i think) for the story of Lost Odyssey, so i'm guessing he used the same philiosophy here. to go with something writen by an expert in the field of literature.

If you don't like FF style romance than i would suggest stay away from TLS. BUT if you loved FFIX than you will LOVE TLS.

Haha, i would say theres different levels of FF romance, FF4, FF6, FF7, FF9 to me constitute more subtle romanace, where its not too over the top and it tends to be well written. FF8, FF10 and FF13 are more in your face type romance with a bit too much touchy feeling type stuff.
and i did really like FF9, i think it was an excellent game, but the battle system was not as good as FF7 or FF8 for various reasons, but FF9 is definitly considered 1 of the top tier FFs, (i think it has the highest metacritic too for an FF game, which says a lot).
